Virtual Northwest Airlines is dedicated to providing a unique environment for the advancement of the virtual aviation experience.

Through our mutual efforts, vNWA partners, pilots and staff continually work to ensure that all of our members feel as part of a family of like-minded enthusiasts who work together to simulate the operations of Northwest Airlines as closely as possible by utilizing the same fleet, routes, and hub structure of the airline before it merged.

In doing this, vNWA staff endevour to provide our pilots with all the tools needed to make their experience as enjoyable and realistic as possible.

NASCAR Charter Results

Posted by Mark Toler on 07/26/2021

Event #22 Results of the 2021 NASCAR Season

Sorry for the delay on the results but we had Awesome results from Event 22 week before last up in New Hampshire.  NWA3000 Devin Caliri carried us again flying 8 flights totaling 45.6 hours of flight time.  Devin provided us with an outstanding net profit of over 2.9 million dollars. 

Devin those are some outstanding numbers!

Devin will receive 15 bonus hours for his 8 flights..

Again we want to thank Devin for last weeks participation in Event 22 of the 2021 NASCAR Season.  We are off again this week as well for the NASCAR Charters as they take a 2 week break before the play offs begin and we will return on August 5th for Event 23 up in Watkins Glen New York. 

Smoky Mountain Crossfire

Posted by Mark Toler on 07/26/2021

Attention all aviators! ZTL and the United States Forest Service is inviting YOU to fly between Asheville and Knoxville, over one of our country’s greatest national parks, the Smoky Mountains. Located on the Tennessee/North Carolina border, it presents to you luscious vegetation and gorgeous eye candy, perhaps you might even run into Smokey the Bear (it only makes sense that he lives in the Smoky Mountains anyways). So, bring us all you've got, 737s, 172s, blimps, you name it, you fly it! Remember, that only YOU can prevent forest fires.

BVA Regional Circuit: BOS, PWM

Posted by Mark Toler on 07/26/2021

In the Regional Circuit, we staff up multiple of our airports to provide pilots with an opportunity to receive 'gate-to-gate' ATC service for the duration of the event. Pilots are encouraged to fly between the airports and make the return flight if time allows; however, traffic from other airports is welcome as well. The Regional Circuit always creates an immersive atmosphere with busy frequencies and congested airways between the host airports.

This Regional Circuit features Boston (KBOS) and Portland (KPWM) airports.

It’s also a great time to try out one of our WINGS flights. Remember, many of the flights have published Alternate Airports, allowing you to earn your BVA pilot ratings at event airports!
